Live

Twist the throttle
Release the clutch
Lift the foot
Off I go

A curve approaches
Line of sight shortens
Steer against the bend
Lean round the corner

Straighten up, on we go
Lines through bends
Parabolic dreams
Ebb and flow

The road rises and falls
Smooth but full of holes
Try to stay between the lines
 Always between the hedges

Every sense alive
In tune with nature
Living in the moment
A meditative journey

Too soon it’s over
Back to the mundane
But when the itch returns
Off I go again
